Chapter 947: Wang Can VS Full Favor
In mid-October, envoys sent by Cao Cao arrived in Chengdu.
In the main hall, Wang Can is high above.
Wang Can was wearing a black crown dress, wearing a nine-sword crown of heaven, a jade belt around his waist, sitting in a precarious position, and his expression was serious. He is nearly thirty years old, he already has three short beards under his chin, two beards on his lips, and the service he wears looks very serious and solemn, giving people a sense of majesty and domineering.
Below, there are a group of civil and military ministers under Wang Can.
There are Li Ru, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Ren An, Tian Feng and other senior members of various departments, as well as important strategists; There are military generals such as Dian Wei, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, Xu Rong, Zhou Cang, etc., as well as civil and military ministers.
In the center of the main hall, full of pets dressed in ceremonial dresses, stood solemnly.
At the beginning, Cao Cao meant to ask Man Chong to send soldiers to send Gan and Mi to Chengdu, but Man Chong was not at ease, so he simply reported to Cao Cao, served as an envoy himself, and took the initiative to send Mi and Gan to Chengdu, and at the same time inquired about the situation in Chengdu.
Along the way, the more the pet went, the more frightened he became.
From Yuzhou to Nanyang County, there is no difference between the two places, and there are suffering people everywhere.
But after entering the boundaries of Yizhou, the situation changed suddenly.
The people of Yizhou live and work in peace and contentment, with a cheerful smile on their faces, and they are very happy. For this reason, Man Pet specially inquired about some of the people he met along the way, and learned that the people had surplus food and money at home, and could eat and dress warmly, which made Man Pet feel a lot of pressure. Man Zhong is also a highly intelligent person, and from the analysis of the situation of the people he encountered, he can already infer the situation under Wang Can's rule.
The people are solid, the grain and grass are abundant, and the country and the people are safe.
The overall strength of Yizhou is terrifying!
Compared with Wang Can, Cao Cao is obviously much worse.
When Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were at war, Cao Cao was in a difficult situation, there was not enough food and grass, and the people under his rule were tired and poor, not to mention having surplus money in stock.
Fortunately, Xun Yu stabilized the rear, so that Cao Cao had a chance to win and defeated Yuan Shao in one fell swoop. Even if Cao Cao got most of Jizhou and also robbed Yuan Shao's grain, the life of the people under his rule was still very difficult, they still lacked food and clothing, and their lives were very difficult.
Full Pet felt that this trip was worth it.
There is too much news to hear.
Man Chong glanced at Wang Can, bowed slightly, and arched his hand: "Wei Guo is full of favor, I have seen the King of Shu!" ”
Wang Can nodded and said with a smile: "Boning has traveled thousands of miles from Yanzhou to send the Gan family and the Mi family, and it has been hard. Don't worry, the woman Meng De didn't dare to want, this king wanted. ”
Without waiting for Man Zhong to speak, Wang Can continued: "Meng De calls himself a hero, and I also think he is a hero in the world. It's a pity that Meng De has a lustful heart and no lustful guts, he really looked away, but I didn't expect him to even have this bit of guts. Alas, isn't it just Liu Bei? Liu Bei is a few oldest, just a lost dog who doesn't even have a place to live. Berning, you go back and tell Meng De, just say that we are all princes who occupy one side, be bold, and don't twist and pinch like a girl. ”
Wang Can sighed and regretted again, saying that Cao Cao was timid.
After listening to the full pet, the corners of his mouth kept twitching.
I heard that Wang Can has a powerful mouth before, but now he can be regarded as a teacher. The civil and military officials in the hall all laughed in a low voice, which made Manzhong's cheeks hot and he felt uncomfortable.
"Ahem! Cough! ”
Man Pet coughed lightly twice, and arched his hand: "King Shu, you misunderstood!" ”
The corners of Wang Can's mouth hooked up a touch of ridicule, his heart was like a mirror, and he knew that Cao Cao's intention to let Man Favor send Gan's and Mi's to Chengdu was nothing more than to let him and Liu Bei never die! But Wang Can and Liu Bei are no longer dying, do they still care about two more women? As the saying goes, more debts don't weigh you down, and having two more women doesn't matter what.
Wang Can looked puzzled and asked, "Berning, is there any reason for this?" ”
Man Pet nodded and said, "That's true!" ”
Wang Can said: "I want to hear it in detail! ”
Man Zhong explained: "King Shu, the Book of Rites says: 'The ancients set up six palaces after the Son of Heaven, three wives, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and eighty-one royal wives. This is the number of wives and concubines. The "Zhou Li" also says: "The king's concubines are one hundred and twenty: the latter one, three wives, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and eighty-one female concubines." "Book of Rites" and "Zhou Li" have determined the number of wives and concubines of the Son of Heaven, although the King of Shu is not the Son of Heaven, but he is also a prince, but there are only three people in the harem, my lord is worried that the heirs of the Prince of Shu are too few, and specially presented two peerless women to the King of Shu, please let the King of Shu spread out and expand the Wang family. ”
This reason was temporarily thought of by Manzhong.
Full Pet can respond in a short period of time, which shows that he is extremely intelligent. Not only that, Man Zhong said that Wang Can had too few wives and concubines, which was inconsistent with the etiquette system at that time, and faintly rebelled against Wang Can's army.
Wang Can smiled and said, "Meng De is kind, thank you." ”
After a pause, Wang Can asked again, "Berning, what position do you hold in the Wei State?" ”
When Manzhong heard this, his heart suddenly became nervous.
As soon as he heard Wang Can's words, he felt that Wang Can was letting him get into the trap again, and he secretly reminded himself to be careful. Immediately, Man Pet replied: "Return to the King of Shu, and pet the King of Wei!" ”
Wang Can immediately said: "Berning is a talent, but it's a pity that he is only engaged in a career, Qu Cai!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Manzhong immediately understood Wang Can's intentions.
The meaning of Wang Can's words was obviously a sarcasm for Cao Cao's inability to appoint talents.
Not only that, Wang Can is likely to have a back-up move, in fact, Wang Can also thinks so.
However, Man Chong didn't give Wang Can a chance, he glanced around at everyone in the hall, and said loudly: "Under my lord's command, there are countless talents, Xun Yu has Xiao He's ability, Liu Ye has Zhang Liang's wisdom, Chen Qun has Chen Ping's talent, Xiahoudun has Fan Xu's bravery, Xiahouyuan has Han Xin's strategy, and there are countless talents. It seems that such a character is full of favors, and he can be the king of Wei, or because he has a loyal heart, he can be among them. It is an honor to have this treatment, and I dare not have the slightest negligence and slackness. ”
When these words came out, Wang Can was immediately speechless.
A spoiled mouth, it's really amazing!
At this time, the civil and military ministers in the main hall were all surprised, but they didn't expect the full favor to be so powerful.
But Man Chong couldn't calm down in his heart, he sent a woman to Wang Can on behalf of Cao Cao It was indeed ill-intentioned, but Wang Can repeatedly made things difficult, which made Man Chong feel angry in his heart. Full of favor was unforgiving, and immediately said: "King of Shu, before my lord left, he asked full of favor, and he must let the king of Shu give a little native products of Shu, and please ask the king of Shu to agree." ”
Wang Can sighed and asked, "Does Meng De like to eat the specialties of Shudi?" ”
After answering like this, Wang Can immediately regretted it.
He also often sets up this kind of trap for people to get into, and now he takes the initiative to ask questions, which is simply asking for trouble.
I saw a faint smile from Manzhong, and said unhurriedly: "Shu people are outstanding people, Wuhua Tianbao, my lord loves it very much, and I can't wait to put Shu in my bag and watch it well." It's just that Yuan Shao is rampant, so my lord wants to get some specialties of Shu to comfort the anxious mood in my heart, and after Yuan Shao is destroyed, my lord's guild will come to Shu as a guest. ”
These words, called being a guest, are actually attacking Shuzhong.
When the ministers heard this, their faces changed greatly.
A group of generals are even more cross-eyed, and they have the idea of killing the full favor.
Wang Can had long known that Man Zhong would not give up, and he had already prepared in his heart, so he didn't panic.
He looked calm, and said with a smile: "What Berning said, Gu agreed." Since Meng De likes the specialties of Shu so much, this king will first relieve his hunger, and then let Meng De live in Shu for a long time, taste the specialties of Shu, and by the way, cook wine with this king to talk about heroes, isn't it beautiful! ”
After listening to it, he secretly praised Wang Can's quick response.
These words, even cutting and beating, became Wang Can to detain Cao Cao to Chengdu.
Seeing that it was difficult to argue with Wang Can, Man Chong didn't want to continue to entangle, so he said: "King Shu, pet is an envoy on behalf of my lord, and there is one more thing, please ask the King of Shu to agree." ”
Wang Can said: "Let's talk about it first, this king depends on the situation!" ”
Man Chong immediately said: "I often hear that the Shu army is brave and good at fighting, and I would like to see the warrior style of Shuzhong." "I want to spy on the situation of the Shu army, but I want to watch the Shu army, which is indeed not simple.
Wang Can waved his hand and said, "Accurate!" ”
Full of pets hugged his fists and said: "Thank you King Shu!" ”
